Deage Aqua Lift Review

Deage* is a skincare brand that has been on my wish list forever, so when they kindly sent me their Aqua Lift Serum I couldn't wait to try it! I've been using this for just over two weeks, which I feel is long enough to have gained a good opinion of whether the product is worth purchasing.

First off, I have really dry skin from being on Accutane and somehow my skin has gotten even drier since I finished my treatment. I would say hydration is my main skincare concern. For me, a hydration serum is working if I can see a difference when I wear makeup. This may sound odd, but  I feel like makeup accentuates any dry patches I have, so if my makeup glides on better and looks smoother, it's usually from a skincare product.

The packaging.... I'm obsessed. The sleek cylinder, the gold writing and not to mention the pump. I adore the design and packaging, it looks so beautiful in a bathroom cabinet or vanity and is super travel friendly. The pump also provides the perfect amount of product.

The formula is a very thin gel, with a slightly cloudy appearance. The Aqua Lift is formulated with blue ginger which; hydrates, plumps, lifts and firms the skin. The Serum also contains Hyaluron_D3 and patented skin fusion technology.

My skin has felt a lot less tight since using this and a lot more hydrated. My left cheek is particularly dry and I find most makeup products cake or emphasise my texture. But since I've used the Aqua Lift Serum I haven't noticed my makeup caking anywhere. This also hasn't broken me out!

The downside... this product costs some serious coin. The 30ml serum costs 125 Euros... which is pretty expensive. Do I think you could find other hydrating serums for cheaper that work perfectly? Absolutely. There are plenty of serums out there that hydrate well for a lot less, but one thing I noticed with the Aqua Lift is how quickly the results have happened. Within one week I noticed a difference, compared to other products where the hydration in my skin did improve but took a lot longer.

I think if you are looking for a luxury hydrating serum that works, this is worth the splurge. The ingredients are great, the overall quality is incredible and I love it.

Reviewing Bioderma's Hydrabio Range

If you've followed my blog for a few years, you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands. Their Micellar water is a product I refuse to live without and I've gone through too many to count. I was over the moon when Bioderma kindly sent me their Hydrabio Range* to try. The Hydrabio range is aimed at combating dehydrated, dry, skin, which I'm especially prone to in winter. 1. Hydrabio Makeup Removing Micellar Water Now, Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water is a holy grail skincare product in my collection. Believe it or not, I didn't realise Bioderma did other varieties of micellar water for different skin concerns. I've been using the Hydrabio micellar water for a few days and I do find my skin feels more hydrated and plump, compared to the sensibio one. It removes makeup just as well as the Sensibio micellar water and I find the Hydrabio micellar water to be a little more gentle and soothing. I would definitely repurchase the Hydrabio version in...

July Empties

 Ahhh another month another empties blog. I actually got through quite a bit of makeup this month, which is unusual for me as it's usually skincare I crank through.  The first product I used up was my beloved Glossier Futuredew. I didn't realise how much I loved this until it was gone. My makeup feels so much different without this as a base and I do miss it as part of my makeup routine. I have a few other primers to get through but I will definitely repurchase this one in the future. The second product I used was my benefit liquid eyeliner. I did like this liner; it's opaque, the felt tip is quite nice and it lasted such a long time before drying up. I do prefer brush tipped eyeliners as I find with hooded eyes my winged eyeliner always looks a lot more precise than with a pen style. So I purchased the KVD liquid eyeliner instead, but the benefit eyeliner is great just not my favourite.  My third empty is my smash box primer water. I adore this spray, it comes out as a f...

Glossier Skywash Review

Whenever Glossier launches anything, I just can't resist! I always loved the idea of swipe on liquid eyeshadows, but Glossiers lidstar's were just too shimmery for my taste... but Skywash.... right up my alley! These are matte liquid Eyeshadows, which claim to be buildable, long lasting (up to twelve hours) and easy to apply. I bought the shades echo, a cocoa brown and terra, a warm orange based brown. I love the concealer, doe foot like applicator, as it is small enough to swipe a good amount on my eyelid, without smearing it everywhere. I honestly can't tell you how easy these are to apply and blend out. A quick swipe on my eye and tap tap tap... I have a gorgeous wash of colour that's not patchy and looks divine! I love how quick and easy these are to apply and the fact they applied evenly really shocked me. They are also buildable, applying two coats gives me more of an evening look and a stronger wash of colour. To be honest... they aren't super long wear...
